Raynham Hall in Norfolk, England, is an old manor house of a noble family. There is a legend here: a woman in brown clothes walks back and forth in the house, known as the "Brown Lady". It is said that she was a lady in the eighteenth century named Dorothy, who was locked in the house by her husband and died a few years later, never leaving after her death.
Someone said that in 1835, a naval lieutenant, who later became a writer of nautical novels, met her in the corridor of the manor and fired at her; the bullet passed through the figure and lodged in the wall.
In September 1936, Country Life magazine sent two photographers to photograph the manor, one named Provand and one named Indreka. After photographing the great hall, they set up their camera at the foot of the grand staircase. Provand suddenly saw a blurry white figure on the stairs, slowly coming down. He shouted for Indreka to press the shutter. Indreka laughed at him while pressing it, saying there was nothing there.
When the negatives were developed, there was a translucent shadow on the stairs, like one draped in gauze, considered by many to be one of the most famous ghost photographs of the twentieth century. The magazine published it, and all of England was talking about it.
Afterwards, some said it was a double exposure; some said it was lens flare; others said it was a trick by the photographers themselves. Cameras of that era were prone to ghosting. No one can say for sure what it was.
If you want to see it, it's all over the internet. The photo is black and white; at a glance, it looks like a person, the body transparent, the face blurred.
That staircase is still in the manor today.
